London Broncos vs Halifax RLFC: Preview

Halifax RLFC will end their 2018 campaign with a trip to the capital to face London Broncos on Saturday evening (7:05pm kick-off).

The match will be broadcast live on Sky Sports Arena and will be the third meeting between the two sides this season.

Form Guide

After six straight losses in the Super 8s Qualifiers, Halifax will be desperate to finish the season on a high with an elusive win in the competition.

For London, victory could see them secure an automatic spot in Super League next season or fail to make a spot in the Million Pound Game, such is the small margins between the two sides.

Head to Head

London boast the better of the recent meetings between the two sides, having won five of their last seven matches against Halifax.

On home soil, the Broncos are particularly strong. They’ve beaten Salford and Toulouse already at the Trailfinders and haven’t been beaten by Fax at home since 2003 - with Richard Marshall part of the Broncos’ side that afternoon.

Halifax will take confidence from their 26-16 triumph at the MBi Shay Stadium back in April though, their most recent win over London.

Team News

Halifax welcome Curtis Davies into the 19-man squad following a string of impressive displays for the Reserve grade by the hooker.
